The lightness of the world of mortals

The door opened, Qingmei appeared at the door wearing a long shawl, Chen Xilin was stunned, it seemed that she didn't intend to let herself in.

Qingmei took half a step, the door was ajar behind her, "Who are you looking for?"

"Sister, are you okay?"

Qingmei took Qingqing's eyes to look at Chen Xilin. The first time she saw her, Chen Xilin was light and unique. What is rare is that she did not become muddy with the growth of age and the tempering of the world. She became a woman who is like a breeze.Qingmei suddenly felt that it was not surprising that her sister would be entangled with such a woman.

She smiled, not going to answer the question, "Tell me, who are you looking for?"

Chen Xilin was a little sad, this elder sister who looked exactly like Qingqing and was ten years older than herself still refused to forgive herself.

"Qing's partner, Dr. K, does my sister know how to contact him?"

Qingmei paused, "What do you want him to do?"

"Take back something that was deposited with him."

"Since there is something stored with him, why is there no contact information?"

"Because the original plan was for Qing to contact him."

Qingmei sighed, "Then your things have been stored for a long time."

"Ah."

"How do I know that you won't do anything to cause trouble for us when you go to her partner?"

Chen Xilin smiled bleakly, thought for a while, "Sister can go with me."

Qingmei wrapped the shawl around her, "Just wait."

She walked in the door, the door closed gently behind her, Chen Xilin lowered her head, her figure was very lonely in the halo of night lights in front of the door.

After a while, Qingmei came out and handed her a note in her hand.

"Thank you," Chen Xilin folded it and held it in his hand, "Then I'm leaving, sister take care."

Qingmei only smiled slightly, but the smile quickly dissipated.

Just as Chen Xilin was about to turn around, he paused again, took out his phone, "Sister, if you see her, please tell me." She clicked on Ming Yue's photo, turned the screen around, and handed it to Qingmei.

Qingmei looked at her face, then lowered her eyes to look at the phone screen, her brows furrowed, and a look of surprise flashed across her eyes.

Chen Xilin's heart skipped a beat, "She came to look for you?"

Qingmei still furrowed her brows, looking at Chen Xilin in confusion.

"Sister, did she look for you?"

Qingmei frowned, "She never looked for me."

Chen Xilin looked at her and pursed his lips helplessly, "Are you sure, she hasn't looked for you?"

"I'm sure."

"...Okay, if she's looking for you, please tell her I'm in Los Angeles, looking for her."

"why?"

"She means a lot to me."

Qingmei looked into Chen Xilin's eyes, then looked down at Mingyu's photo, and then looked up at her.

Chen Xilin smiled wearily, took back the phone, and threw it into his pocket, "Thank you sister, I won't bother you." After speaking, he took a step back, turned and walked towards the car.

She sent a glimmer of hope that Qingmei would stop her and tell her where Mingyue was.She lowered the window, started the car, Qingmei turned around, and closed the door.

Qingmei leaned against the door, thinking about the whole thing, after a while, she walked towards the phone.

Ming Yu and Qing Hui's family of three came down from the restaurant. Qing Hui's cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and connected: "Hello? Sister Mei?"

Qinghui said something on the other end of the phone, and then walked aside while talking.

Mingyue, Anji, and Anji's mother were left behind, and the three of them stood together, smiling awkwardly.

Qinghui stepped aside, "Sister, tell me, what's the matter?"

"Let me ask you, what's the relationship between our younger sister Yue and Chen Xilin? What's the relationship with my sister?"

Qing Hui was stunned, "What's wrong?"

"Chen Xilin was looking for me just now, she was looking for Mingyue. Xiaohui, what is the relationship between them?"

"She—" Qing Hui prolonged the end, "She has a working relationship with Chen Xilin, it seems that the surnamed Chen is her client."

On the parking driveway next to the restaurant, Ming Yue brushed her hair, "I'll go over there to buy something." She pointed to the convenience store across the street, and she ran out of cigarettes.

"Auntie, I'm going too." Angie took a big step and followed.

Ming Yu turned his head and smiled at her, she hadn't figured out how to get along with the younger generation yet.

The cigarettes were all in the window behind the cashier, Mingyu picked out a pack, "Do you want anything?" She asked Anji.

Anji was not polite, opened the freezer door and grabbed a bottle of drink, and Ming Yue swiped his card together.

"Thank you auntie."

"You're welcome." Ming Yue smiled.

The two walked to the door, and Anji unscrewed the bottle cap, "Are you looking for Miss Auntie?"

Ming Yue was stunned, "How do you know?"

Angie raised her head and took a sip of water, then shrugged, "I heard what Mom and Dad said," she swallowed the water, "They've been talking for a few years, do you want to listen?"

Ming Yu looked across the street, Qinghui was still talking on the phone, and Anji's mother was looking down at her phone.

She took out a cigarette and thought of something again, "Do you mind?"

Angie shook her head, "Mr. Auntie has been missing for a long time, and it is said to be related to Brother Simon's death." She stood there, tiptoeing, "Oh, Brother Simon is Mr. Auntie's son, he is the kind of pale and fragile boy , have been having some psychological problems."

"Why?" Ming Yue let the smoke he exhaled surround her, as if his grief had a carrier.

"Why are there psychological problems? Or why are you dying?"

"All."

Anji actually pulled the corner of his lips, and there was a helpless smile beyond his age on his face, which disappeared in an instant, "I don't know what happened to him, and I don't know why he committed suicide. He cut his wrist in the bathtub." , " she tiptoed again, "but Sir Auntie must know."

Ming Yu smoked the cigarette in his hand fiercely, thinking about what all this had brought to Qing Qing and Chen Xilin.

"It is said that someone saw Lord Auntie in Dongsuo later."

Ming Yu took a long puff of smoke, "Why did you come to tell me this?"

"Last night, I vaguely heard my mother and father say that it should be Lynn who asked you to inquire about Sir Auntie."

Mingyu looked up at her, "Are you familiar with Lynn?"

Angie shrugged again, "Get to know her. She's cool." She said in English.

"But doesn't Lynn know what you told me?"

"I don't know how much she knows. But if she asked you to ask, there is no malice. That's all I know."

The smoke between Mingyu's fingers lit up again, and after a while, "Why do you trust Lynn so much?"

Angie smiled slowly, looking at her toes, with a pure and innocent expression, "She is Miss Auntie's lover, and it is her that Mrs. Auntie loves, not Brother Simon's father."

Ming Yue's smoked lips trembled slightly, "You know so much?"

"You must know it too, I can see it."

"What else do you see?"

"Not sure, but auntie wasn't having a good night."

Ming Yu smiled bleakly, "You are so sharp at such a young age."

Across the street, Angie's mother looked up from her phone, as if suddenly remembering to ask where everyone had gone.

Qing Hui began to wrap up the conversation, with a soothing smile on his face, "It should be just a coincidence, sister Mei, don't think too much, it is impossible for Ming Yue to know about sister Qing." He walked towards Anji's mother while talking.

Anji's mother finally saw her daughter and her new sister-in-law in front of the convenience store across the street, and waved to them, signaling them to come over.

Ming Yu was putting the cigarette butts into the sand table of the trash can, and looked across the street, "Let's go."

Chen Xilin came out of an industrially designed townhouse, holding a chip the size of a matchbox in a plastic box, and she put it in her bag.This is Dr. K's home.

next stop?She got in the car, rolled down the window, and lit a cigarette.

At least, judging from Qingmei's reaction, Ming Yue had looked for her, but why did she affirm that she hadn't, and lied so confidently?I believe that Qingmei will not.

Just now Dr. K said with certainty that he had never seen Mingyue.

Wait, one said that Yu had never looked for her, and the other said that he had never met Ming Yu... The difference is...?

A burst of nausea surged from his stomach and from the depths of his brainwaves. Chen Xilin opened the car door and vomited with his chest in his mouth.The tens of thousands of kilometers of running and exhausting in the past few days have probably overdrawn her physical and mental strength.It's really getting old, she vomited, but at the same time, she thought of Ming Yue's cute self-deprecating sentence on the phone that day, tears welled up in her eyes, and she was about to fall out in the blink of an eye.

Qingmei should have seen her before, maybe even just a picture or something like that?Chen Xilin thought, maybe it was a chance encounter?But why didn't she say it?

Chen Xilin sat in the car, thinking about all this.At least, Mingyu has been here before, so is she still in Los Angeles?

I came here at the fastest speed, only one day later than her, one day, she wouldn't just leave, right?

She started the car and drove towards Beverly Hills. She knew the style of Mingyu's hotel reservations, and probably knew which hotel brands she was a member of. Let's try my luck.

She stopped in front of the huge stone-carved decorative wall and handed the car keys to the doorman.There were people in twos and threes sitting in front of the fireplace in the center of the hall. Chen Xilin glanced at it and walked towards the table. The beautiful waitress smiled at her under the bright lights, "Hello, how can I help you?"

Chen Xilin smiled slightly, "I came here to meet up with my friends. I was in a hurry and didn't book a room. Is the suite still available?" She took out her card bag.

The front desk glanced at it without any trace, "No problem, I will check it for you."

Soon, she booked a suite with a large balcony, thanked the other party, and took out her mobile phone to call Mingyu.No surprises, shutdown.

"Maybe there is something wrong with my friend's cell phone, and I haven't been able to contact her since this afternoon." Chen Xilin smiled steadily, "Can you contact me for me? Her name is Mingyu."

The front desk hesitated for a moment, "How do you spell it?"

Chen Xilin reported to her.

She knew that if she didn't show up, if she didn't book a room that symbolized her status, the front desk would just politely reject her, there was no room for negotiation, and protecting the privacy of guests was the most important thing.

"Well, wait a minute, I'll call your friend, if she's in the room, do you mean you're waiting for her in the lobby?"

Chen Xilin smiled, of course, she would not tell her room number, "Yes, thank you."

The posture of the beautiful receptionist holding the phone seemed to bring great hope to Chen Xilin's life, as if the beeps on the phone went straight to his brain.

"Sorry, Ms. Yu, this is the front desk of the hotel. Excuse me." Of course, she thought Yu was her last name.

A tense string in his head flicked away, and the joy spread to his limbs.

"There is a lady Lynnsichin waiting for you in the lobby."

Chen Xilin looked at her face, he was trained to be impeccable, so he couldn't see the real emotion.

"She's right here at the front desk."

Chen Xilin stretched out his hand and smiled towards the front desk.The phone was transferred to her by a ghost.

"It's me, I want to see you."
